Kaskus is an Indonesian Internet forum that describes itself as "the largest Indonesian community". Registration is required for new users to participate in the community, and every registered member has access to more than twenty regional and subject-related sub-forums. The community initially used the vBulletin forum but switched to a new engine they developed called "New Kaskus" in mid-2012.
==History== Kaskus was created on November 6, 1999, by Indonesian students Andrew Darwis, Ronald Stephanus, Ken Dean Lawadinata, and Budi Dharmawan. Kaskus was originally intended as an informal forum for Indonesian students abroad. The name Kaskus itself is an abbreviation of the word "Kasak-Kusuk" which translates to 'gibberish' or 'whispers'.
